Happy Saturday! Any Mother's Day plans this weekend? I'm taking my mom shopping today for some clothes she wants. Always easier when you buy them what they want!
Today begins a new challenge from Just Us Girls, and our very talented and creative Lynn is our hostess for the technique challenge. She has chosen generation stamping. That's where you ink up your stamp once and continue stamping to get lighter colors. Gina K just did a video on this technique the other day that you can see here.
So here's what I came up with. I chose this butterfly from Discover Your Wings stamp set from Taylored Expressions. I stamped it in Old Olive and just continued stamping two more times and got these two other lovely colors from one inking. The sentiment was stamped in Chocolate Chip. I added some brown pearls and mounted the circle on a chocolate scalloped circle. The dp is called Madeline from Prima. I punched the doily scalloped border and added some twine and button.
The sketch is from this week's Deconstructed Sketches. Loved this one!
You can see more samples using the generation stamping technique at these blogs.
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope to see your creations over at our JUGs blog!
